With the win, the Hawks improve to 8-5 on the season and 1-2 in GSAC play. The Mustangs fall to 4-7 on the year and 1-2 on conference play.

The Hawks spread the ball well in the first as four different players scored six points each. They couldn’t hit a deep shot, going 0-for-10 from beyond the arc.
Michael Lambert got the scoring going for the Hawks to start the second. His layup gave the Hawks the slim 1-point lead at 34-33. Dalante Dunklin‘s layup with 13:28 remaining in the game gave the Hawks their biggest lead of the game at 52-42. SDC only trailed for 1:03 in the second.
Trevor English led the Hawks with 19 points. Lambert was next with 18 points followed by Dunklin’s 16. SDC shot 48 percent from the floor but were outrebounded by the Mustangs 38-30. The Hawks did force 24 turnovers to their 10.
